Pickleball
Pickleball is a sport that is able to cross many boundaries that most other sports cannot. A combination of traditional tennis played with a "wiffle" style ball and wooden paddle on a smaller court. The sport is aggressive but allows players the ability to take a less aggressive modification that can make the game more comfortable for the average player.
